These are patches for the IrDA SMC driver for linux 2.4.7 to get the
smc-ircc module working for my Dell Latitude C600 (and probably other
Dell Laptops as well, e.g. Inspirions).

Basically they are an adaption of Stefani Seibolds <stefani@seibold.net>
patches for linux-2.4.6-ac5 posted on
http://www4.pasta.cs.UiT.No/pipermail/linux-irda/2001-July/002969.html
and Bjorn Mork posted on

since (at least my patch program ;-)) was not able to apply their
patches to the 2.4.7 sources :(

So all honor for them should go to Stefani and Bjorn (currently I don't
have much knowledge on the IrDA stuff... :().

To apply them, just cd to your linux kernel source directory, e.g.
/usr/src/linux, and do 'patch -p1 < $file' for each file and rebuild
your modules ...
